Witches?!?
(Startled, they both practically spring to their feet)
(To Fennik) W-well gee, mister! If we knew there were witches around here, we wouldn't have wandered this far...
Witches... Is that what made a mess of all those trees ya think? (Points a thumb at the mess of halved trees)

Standing in the shadows at the end of my bed.-Oh, she's just reading a book-
-...A book that looks like it contains more pages than the binding can realistically hold-
-The bear's attention is grabbed by the mention of "witches" and he looks towards the group-
"Witches? There's a witch around here?"
-The red bird pops out of his backpack again-
"We've got experience with 'em, what's going on?"

(The two huddle together at the thought)
Boy, you really got us into a tangle this time, Cuphead...
Don't look at me, Mugsy, I-
Weird shapes?? Now hold on a minute there, wiseguy! Haven't any of you been around kids like us??

Standing in the shadows at the end of my bed.(Cuphead storms toward Fennik, rolling up a sleeve)
You got some nerve runnin' you mouth like that you little-
(Mugman steps ahead of him and holds him back)
Cups! Cool it! He doesn't mean it!
(To Fennik) Listen, mister. We didn't get messed around with by a witch. We've always been like this. ...I-It's sort of normal where we're from, actually.

Standing in the shadows at the end of my bed.The same witch kept kidnapping your sister?
Ahhh... A witch took away my dad when I was real young...
Hmm... I guess there could be things like nice witches around... But it's still scary...
...!
-Fennik clams up and grips at his spear before Mugman comes up-
Oh! I'm... I'm really sorry then! I've never seen people like you before... I've lived on a mountain for a really long time!

Deer"I'm real sorry to hear that...not all witches are bad, though! The witch who took my sister, she had a nice sister who helped us out!"
"And two evil sisters, so that doesn't really balance out...messed up family, in hindsight. Well, was I guess - half of 'em are dea-"
"Uh, maybe not the time to talk about that..."
-Not yet, Graham...!-

Golly, that's gotta be a much different place! Not even Cups has dragged us that far.
...But he sure dragged us somewhere, huh? (Side-eyes his bro, tapping a foot)
(Folds his arms) I knew where I was going for most'a the way...

-GRAHAM THE MAN walks out of the mouth of the cave, yawning and stretching.-
-'A morning walk would do me good, I think....' He thought, extremely uncharacteristically.-
-And so he steeled himself for physical exercise, and began taking those first few important steps toward ADVENTURE!-
-At least, until he looked up and noticed Ori in the hammock right there-
............
-BACKPEDAL, BACKPEDAL AWAY FROM THE ADVENTURE-
